When Matt Lawrence's battle with an autoimmune condition pushed him to the brink, it wasn't conventional wisdom but a carnivore diet that turned the tides on his health. Join us as Matt shares his captivating journey from severe muscle twitching and eczema to a robust state of well-being, thanks to his meat-centric lifestyle. It's a story that not only highlights the potential of diet to combat autoimmune diseases but also demonstrates the evolution of his dietary practices to include natural sweeteners and occasional fruits, culminating in what he now calls an animal-based diet—a testament to the transformative power of nutrition on our health and performance.

Does the perfect diet exist? This episode sets out to debunk myths and cut through the dietary noise, as we explore the territories of carnivore and animal-based diets. Here, the conversation isn't just about the food on our plates; it's about making informed choices, recognizing the role of plants, and tailoring our intake to what our bodies truly need. You'll hear personal anecdotes and expert insights highlighting how these diets are less about following a trend and more about listening to our bodies, all while navigating a world filled with processed temptations.

Lastly, we discuss how maintaining a nutritious regime doesn't have to mean emptying your pockets. I'll walk you through my own strategies for keeping healthy eating affordable, with tips that will have you finding the best deals at your local Walmart and Aldi. For the sports enthusiasts, we recount the tale of a former Ohio University walk-on football player's journey from the grueling demands of college athletics to a balanced fitness routine.
